You may choose to forego that right, however, there is a laundry list of special people who are allowed to carry on board. If it was really that dangerous, I would think that list would be either be much smaller or completely done away with altogether.

Given the type of searches conducted on people going into lockup facilities, I am more confident that they are not armed then I am with the possibility that passengers on the airplane are not armed.
